Lakota (also Lakhota Teton Teton Sioux) is a Siouan language spoken by the Lakota people of the Sioux tribes. While generally taught and considered by speakers as a separate language Lakota is mutually intelligible with the other two languages (cf. Dakota language) and is considered by most linguists one of the three major varieties of the Sioux language.
